Elegy for Auld Lang Syne is a story event.

For centuries,
the Joya has gathered Kleshas
from across the realm to maintain
a healthy balance in mortal desires.

After three losses of control, the Joya
has spent the last year quietly
in its sanctuary, doing its duty.

The year spirit prays that, this time,
the year will come to a peaceful conclusion.

But the Joya's sanctuary is invaded
by someone with very different ideas.
The new year never seems content
to make a quiet entrance
in the Sky Realm.

ふぅ…… 覚悟はできてるけど、 やっぱり緊張するなぁ ジョヤの鐘つき…… 歳神としての一番大事な最後のお役目 最初の暴走はアニラが歳神を務めた時だったかな？ あれ以来、ジョヤは何度も暴走を繰り返してきた たぶん、過剰な量の煩悩に堪えきれなくなって 我を忘れてしまったんだと思う。 でも、前回は頑張ってくれたし 今回もきっと大丈夫…だよね？ ううん、万が一なにかあっても、私が何とかしないと 亥神として、しっかりとお役目を果たすんだ 次回、グランブルーファンタジー 『除夜の終わりに響く鐘』 よろしくねジョヤ、一緒に頑張ろう

Hah.... I know I'm prepared, but it's still nerve-wracking The most important, final duty of the year spirit - ringing Joya's bell If I remember correctly, the first rampage was when Anila was the year spirit... Since then, Joya has lost control over and over again.. I think Joya lost sight of itself because the sheer amount of worldly desires became too much to bear But last time, Joya held it together.... This time will be fine... right? Nngh, in the off chance that something goes wrong, I've got to do something. I'm going to fulfill my role as the boar spirit. Next time on Granblue Fantasy: "Elegy for Auld Lang Syne" It's up to us, Joya. Let's do our best

The year spirit prays that, this time,
